The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 8.4/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · c74e6cf

Ran it live on cli/cli PR #13864 (add a Grok agent-host entry): the skill correctly classified the change as non-architectural and routed to a one-line brief note instead of forcing manufactured before/after diagrams onto a trivial table addition -- exactly the discipline a naive prompt wouldn't show.

What Architecture Impact does

Reads a GitHub PR (via gh CLI), classifies changes as architectural vs. implementation, and only produces diagrams/write-up when the change is genuinely structural. Triggers on requests to explain a PR's architectural before/after, what it enables, and what risk it introduces; skips straight to a one-line brief note for non-architectural PRs instead of manufacturing diagrams.
